Drain Preparation
The dishwasher drain hose may be connected to the drain plumbing in one of three ways (Figure
A, B, C).
•
Either one of the above methods must be used or the dishwasher will not operate properly.
•
A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the
dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the
hole plugged.
•
The total length of the drain hose is 763/4" (1950mm). If a hose extension is required, a
drainage hose of equal quality must be used.
•
The maximum length must not exceed 157 ½" (4000mm). Otherwise, the cleaning process
is negatively influenced.

Disposal
Install a Y-branch tail pipe. (Figure A)
You must add a loop at least 28" (710mm) above the
floor of the cabinet and above the drain connection
in the drain hose to prevent waste water from not
draining properly, and causing either poor washing results or a bad
odor.
If the local ordinance requires an air gap (Figure B).
Check with local ordinance for type of air gap
required.
Remove the drain connection plug before attaching the drain hose from the
dishwasher.
Every disposal has a hook up for a dishwasher; consult your disposer
manual for correct connection. (Figure C)
